‎First printing of an importent paper in the history of meteorology, describing the invention of the Brooke-magnetometer. This new photographic drum method ensured continuous recording of geomagnetic elements, and rapidly gained use all over the world.The instrumental developments by Ronalds and Brooke establishedthe standard technique employed for magnetic observatory recording for more than a century.In 1845 Charles Brooke devised a self-recording photographic magnetometer with a light-source, a mirror for amplifying the magnet’s movement, and a drum of photographic paper. This system gradually replaced the older manual method of taking eye-observations through vertical microscope which scanned the ends of a magnetic needle" the magnetic needle itself was suspended by a bunch of silk fibersWheeler Gift No 2858..‎

Contemporary calf, spine with raised bands, an English binding, restored. Rare edition in folio written in "Law French", it is one of the most important English legal compilations of the 16th century covering the entire period from the late 15th century upto the middle of the 16th century. This language "Law French" is an archaic language derived from the Norman and English-Norman languages and which came into use in the courts of England with the arrival of William the Conquerer in the 11th century and which remained in use upto the 17th century. Some words and phrases remained even in use into the 20th century before they were replaced by modern English and the influence of "Law French" is still perceptible in the numerous legal terms that have remained unchanged since their first introduction.Originally published in 1568 "This Abridgement, which is principally founded upon that of Fitzherbert, is digested under a greater number of titles, and besides the authorities collected by Fitzherbert, Brooke abridges a great number of readings, which seem to have fallen under his own knowledge as a judge and chief justice of the common pleas and which are nowhere else extant, except in a small volume selected from this Abridgement, entitled New Cases" (Worrall, cited by Allibone in: A Critical Dictionary of English Literature).The book is printed in gothic type, with a very irregular pagination, containing two title-pages with a nice typgraphical architectural border, first title-page strengthened at outer margin, some clear stain here and there, good margins, overall a good copy. ‎

‎First edition. ""In the nineteenth century, James Brook (1803-1866), English gentleman-adventurer, ensured that Borneo would figure in Western imaginations and encyclopedias as rather more, or less, rhan Pigafetta's luminous projection. Aided by british naval might and complacent locals, Brooke suppressed piracy in Sarawak, in return securing a pledge granting him sole rights to the district.""
